Overview

Introducing the 2014 Ecosse The Heretic, a limited-edition naked bike that stands as a testament to the pinnacle of motorcycle engineering and design. With its striking aesthetics and cutting-edge technology, The Heretic appeals to the discerning rider seeking a unique blend of performance and style. Handcrafted with meticulous attention to detail, this motorcycle embodies exclusivity, boasting a sequential production number engraved on each unit, making it a coveted item for collectors and enthusiasts alike. At the heart of The Heretic lies a formidable 1966cc V2, four-stroke engine that delivers an impressive 133 horsepower and a staggering 185.77 Nm of torque. This powertrain is paired with a 6-speed gearbox, ensuring smooth transitions and exhilarating acceleration. The unique configuration, complemented by a Mikuni 45mm flat slide carburetor, creates a raw yet refined riding experience. The liquid-cooled engine is balanced perfectly with a lightweight design, allowing riders to experience its power-to-weight ratio of 0.6488 HP/kg—an exhilarating figure that guarantees an adrenaline-fueled ride whether you're cruising on the highway or carving through twisty backroads. Ecosse has incorporated advanced technology into The Heretic’s design, featuring a CrMo mainframe and carbon fiber elements that lend both structural integrity and a striking visual appeal. The Öhlins suspension system—featuring fully adjustable front forks and a rear setup with three distinct modes (dragster, cruiser, road racer)—ensures that this machine is ready for any riding style. Stopping power is equally impressive, with double disc brakes in the front and a single disc at the rear, providing outstanding control at any speed. From its customizable color options to the electric starter and optional polished engine, The Heretic is as much about personal expression as it is about performance. In summary, the 2014 Ecosse The Heretic is not just a motorcycle; it’s a declaration of individuality and performance, crafted for those who refuse to settle for the ordinary. Its blend of engineering prowess and aesthetic appeal makes it a remarkable choice for the discerning rider.

Pros

  • Adjustable Suspension: The fully adjustable Öhlins suspension allows riders to tailor their riding experience to their preferences, whether on the track or the street.
  • Exclusive Design: With its limited production and customizable options, The Heretic is a standout motorcycle that appeals to collectors and enthusiasts alike.

Cons

  • Fuel Capacity: The 15.90-liter tank may require more frequent fill-ups, especially during long rides, potentially limiting range.
  • Price Point: As a limited edition and high-performance motorcycle, the cost may be prohibitive for average riders, positioning it in the luxury segment of the market.
